as married. I am your sister Stella, and my husband is your brother Penloe. Both of us look upon all boys and men as our brothers, and all girls and women as our sisters, for we are all members of one family." The old man sat in silence after Stella spoke; he seemed to be amazed. Stella said: "We must go now." As she wished him good-bye, he said to them: "What must I do in return for the great blessing of sight which has been given me to-day?" Penloe said: "Live much in prayer, live in the realization of Divine love. Remember your body is the temple of God. Keep it as such, and help others to live the Divine life." Was there ever a bride so happy as Stella was on the after noon of her wedding day, when she was returning home to tell her mother the joyful news that Andrew had recovered his sight.

You had not spent much time in prayer, in meditation, in concentration, in being up in the mountains, walking and talking with God daily, and living in the realization of the Kingdom of Heaven within. All this has helped to make you a healer." Stella said: "Penloe, all you say is true, but I cannot help thinking that you were the healer." Penloe said: "Stella, dear, you spoke the healing word." Mrs. Wheelwright, smiling inwardly, said: "Children, you have only been married a few hours, and have got a bone of contention already. I am surprised at you both." Stella, putting on a serious face, said: "Well, mother, I know it was Penloe;" and Penloe said: "Well, mother, I know it was Stella." Mrs. Wheelwright said: "Children, I c
